Online session options
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Dr. Dyer often draws on Narrative Therapy to help people notice the stories that shape their choices. This approach helps separate a person from the problem so they can consider different meanings and options for change. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is also part of her work and focuses on identifying personal values and taking small, realistic steps toward them while accepting uncomfortable feelings.She brings a client-centered stance to sessions, meaning the conversation is guided by what the client finds important. Together they assess which approach or mix of approaches fits best for the client's goals and preferences. Deciding on an approach is a collaborative process and can shift as needs change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls give face-to-face time for deeper conversation, phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited, live chat allows quick check-ins, and messaging supports brief reflections or ongoing support between sessions. These options make scheduling more flexible and can fit around work, caregiving, or travel.
